I was so nervous doing this one, but he was absolutely brilliant -- such a fun event and so glad I had the chance to chair him!

(As you can see, I'm also getting increasingly angry about AI, or the Techbrodude's new clothes, as I'm thinking of it -- it doesn't actually solve any problems and in fact creates new ones..)

AI has no knowledge. It might -- *might* -- have lots of information, but information without context is not knowledge. It is also the ultimate example of GIGO (Garbage in, Garbage Out) the world has ever seen. All it can is chop up information to serve it back to the user with their preferred bias.

I can only imagine the terror you'd wreak with such power...

And, as always with my @dosomedamage.bsky.social, there's an incomplete list of things what I read and watched over the last month, all of which I would recommend for one reason or another... (I tend not to list things I didn't enjoy...)

(And yes, I know it's late -- one day I will file my @dosomedamage.bsky.social entries on time...)

Pretty much always the same with Louise's books -- they're literary pringles; once you [pop] start, you can't stop...

It is absolutely excellent! Raced through it, even though I was meant to be doing edits...
